    Actually it's not "write protect" you are seeking but a form of digital rights management. I am unaware of any retail version of such a function for the consumer.

    As Need pointed out, Write protecting the disk is not what you want. A DVD+/-R disk is already write once. Same with a CD/R.

    But that doesn't mean someone can't copy the contents. There are a few digital rights schemes out there to inhibit copying. Search the WEB on DRM for more info.

    You should also look into getting your material copyrighted.
